Mr. Freeman, still squatting, took a few steps forward and asked, "Can I shake your hand and be your friend?"
Josie revealed half her head and said, "You are Athena's good friend. I can shake your hand."
After saying that, she carefully extended a hand.
When they shook hands, Mr. Freeman cupped his face and exclaimed, "Why does Athena have such a cute sister while I do not? It is so unfair!"
Knowing he was praising her, Josie shyly used her Hello Kitty to cover her face. Her cheeks turned red.
Claire smiled and said, "Josie, could you show the guests to the dining room?"
"Alright." Josie stepped out from behind her mother, waving the Hello Kitty in her hand. "Dear guests, the dining room is this way. Please follow me."
The other three guests nodded at Claire and the others. They apologized with a brief "Sorry to bother you" and then followed Josie.
Arthur observed Rufus, who was at least 6 feet 3 inches tall and had a powerful and impressive presence. His buzz cut resembled a hedgehog's spikes, giving him a rugged and formidable look as though he were from the underworld. Yet, he was extremely polite and seemed fond of children.
The other three were all dressed in white coats and looked completely different from Rufus.
One was an elderly man in his sixties with thick, neatly combed white hair and glasses, appearing wise and scholarly.
Another was a skinny young man with long bangs nearly covering his eyes. He wore large black-framed glasses and had a somewhat gloomy and blank expression as if he was not fond of interacting with others. Upon entering, he immediately gazed in the direction of the dining room with a keen interest in his eyes.
Arthur muttered to himself, "Frankenstein."
The last person was a woman in her forties. She was dressed simply and did not wear any makeup. Her expression was somewhat stern and old-fashioned, resembling the kind of low-empathy female leaders one often encountered in the office.
Arthur felt a bit intimidated by her and did not dare to approach. Fortunately, she did not seem inclined to speak much.
Athena welcomed them into the dining room, "It's not often that you visit us. Please don't worry about any formalities. Just help yourselves and enjoy the meal."
Rufus and the others did not stand on ceremony and took their seats.
Since they were here to taste the food, the family specially prepared a circular rotating table with only four seats.
Claire stood by the table and served soup. "This is Green Gazpacho. A soup."
Three of them thanked her politely.
Only the skinny and small "Frankenstein" did not and picked up the spoon to take a sip. His eyes immediately brightened, and he seemed to come alive like a fish just entering the water.
He then focused on drinking the soup and relished the taste of the exquisite soup.
After finishing, he picked up a fork and, without waiting for the others to start eating or for the dishes to be introduced, began to eat a piece of macaroni and cheese in front of him.
Everyone could see that his eyes widened and glistened, a smile spread across his face, and he began chewing more quickly.
"It seems like the dishes are quite delicious. He's enjoying his meal!" The three others thought. Observing this, they, too, picked up their forks.
Rufus smiled and said, "Mrs. Donovan, we can serve ourselves. Please, go ahead and have your meal."
In the dining room, a small table with a few dishes was set aside for the family's meal.
Claire sat down facing the guests and quietly asked Athena, "Athena, do you think they like the food?"
Athena smiled and responded, "They absolutely do."
Josie revealed half her head and said, "You are Athena's good friend. I can shake your hand."
